Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: OlympiaTV at 3.1 against Muscleware's 2.6. OlympiaTV also leads on review sentiment (52% vs 25%) and ratings volume (126 vs 5). Muscleware's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 16.6). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
